Sheffield Wednesday: Fans call for Fernando Forestieri to be in the starting 11
Sheffield Wednesday succumbed to a disappointing 2-1 defeat against Blackburn Rovers at the weekend (via BBC Sport).
Who is the better coach, Garry Monk or Steve Bruce?
Monk
Bruce
Despite taking the lead, the Owls could not hold on and surrendered the three points, conceding twice in the dying minutes of the game.
Several Wednesday players struggled to have much of an impact in the game, and some fans are calling for manager Garry Monk to make changes ahead of their next game against Swansea City.
One of the players that supporters would like to see given an opportunity in the starting 11 is forward Fernando Forestieri.
The 29-year-old recently missed six matches due to a ban imposed upon him by the Football Association (The Sun) and has only recently returned to action.
So far he has made cameo appearances against Stoke City, Leeds United and Blackburn, and against Rovers, he went close to grabbing a late equaliser but his shot hit the post (@swfc).
Some supporters have seen enough to believe that the former Watford man should be in the starting line-up going forward. Here is what some fans have said about Forestieri on Twitter…
i know it’s early but losing hope slowly for us this season to throw away a 1-0 lead to lose 2-1 ( 2 goals in 2 minutes) is a disgrace i don’t understand why forestieri doesn’t get a place in that starting 11 don’t agree with that , need to be more clinical infront of goal #swfc

Would do anything to see a 4-4-2 with Fernando Forestieri involved as a striker😕
